It contains two parts: a gray-level part and a binary part. A partial-result-reuse technique is applied to reduce the hardware cost of gray-level part. For the target of high throughput and flexibility, the binary part is implemented with a programmable PE array. Simulation shows the proposed hardware architecture is efficient in both hardware complexity and memory organization. © 2001 IEEE.application/pdf405447 bytesapplication/pdfComputer architecture; Image segmentation; Morphology; Video signal processing; Algorithms; Computer architecture; Computer hardware; Computer simulation; Program processors; Real time systems; Video signal processing; Hardware architecture; Hardware complexity; Hardware cost; High throughput; Hybrid morphology; Memory organizations; Partial result reuse; Real-time video segmentation; Real time systems; Image segmentation; Video segmentation systemsconference paper10.1109/ISCAS.2001.9220382-s2.0-0035016748http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/2007041910021242/1/00922038.pdf
